In a “get ready with me” video posted on her TikTok profile on Monday, the 27-year-old gymnast recounted the incident. “We had the closing ceremonies of the Olympics. I went, and then we went out. Guys, this club tried to charge me $26,000 for a bottle of champagne.”
Simone continued by saying that she “obviously” did not pay for the extremely expensive bottle. “Like, are you crazy? Obviously, I didn’t buy it. But why would you try to scam me this way? Like, that’s insane,” the athlete added.
In the comments, her fans agreed that the price was indeed too high for a bottle of champagne. “$26,000 is insane, oh my God,” commented a TikTok user. “Was it [at] L’Arc?”, asked another, referring to an exclusive nightclub in Paris with a champagne menu.
Although Simone did not reveal the name of the club where the incident occurred, she appeared on her social media last week to post photos of a night out with her sister at the L’Arc club after the Olympics ended.
